What is regenerative braking in an Audi e-Tron vehicle?

I've heard that an Audi e-Tron has regenerative braking. Can you explain what that means and how it works?

Regenerative braking is a technology that recaptures the energy lost while braking and uses it to recharge the battery. This means more efficient energy usage and longer range for your e-Tron.

In simpler terms, regenerative braking is like turning a generator when you press the brakes, which in turn helps recharge the battery and reduce energy consumption. It's a win-win for both your car and the environment.

Think of it like this: instead of wasting energy and creating heat while braking, regenerative braking allows the battery to store that energy for later use. It's like getting a small boost every time you press the brakes.
